Default article FLHS conversion into Road King
A few years ago I bought a copy of Hot Bike or Hot Rod bikes magazine. In it there was an article about the conversion of an FLHS into Road King. The mechanic was referred to as "the doctor". I lost that copy. Does anyone knows a link to this article or how I could buy a copy?

thank's

Well you may have a long wait as this was 5 years ago and the only post from the OP. But found a post from the OP in another forum and appears they found the actual magazine, not a link.. Oh well

I too would love to find this rogue article. I have searched all over for 'The Doctor'.

When I had my FLHS, I think it was JP cycle who had a conversion kit. I don't think it is still available but maybe worth a try.
